I don’t doubt there are people who want to figure out the mystery, but I think there’s a lot of evidence of confirmation bias already. Take for example the green “triangle” UFO’s above the navy ship that turned out to be caused by DSLR lenses. The guy with the beard who makes the rounds talking about UFO’s who released the video in the first place- I saw still denying that conclusion. It’s not hard to imagine drones could be launched from a ship or submarine, or even lie dormant in the water far out at sea. That said, clearly those flying objects came from somewhere and figuring out where is something the government should be concerned with if they are stalking our military.
Or that one of the Nimitz that was analyzed, I believe recently by NASA, and is believed to be a bird. And there’s ideas about the other Nimitz videos being caused by a distant plane. So yes, I think there is a lot of confirmation bias. People can’t make sense of what they see and conclude they are of non-human origin. And that’s typical of human nature- to ascribe in a sense a supernatural power to things that cannot be understood- whether it be gods, aliens, ghosts, etc.
I do think the most compelling story is the four navy pilots who (as I understand) saw something with their own eyes and then allegedly the radar operators saw the same thing simultaneously. First hand accounts or radar data alone I don’t find very persuasive (humans are prone to optical illusions and such, while radar can have artifacts, but when you combine multiple sources together that’s when things get more interesting.
That said, if there were alien craft on earth I don’t think it’s that outrageous the government could keep it a secret. Because no one would believe a person who claims to be in the know and most would be written off as insane or a liar.
